I’m interested in everybody’s 40/60/80 score, if only to see what the MPS was. I know it’s not a perfect measure, but in the absence of “actual” scores, it’s about the best we can do.
For those who don’t know what 40/60/80 is: It’s a simple formula that anybody should be able to do in Excel. Just multiply the points on your section times .4, .6, or .8, depending on how well you scored. Then add ‘em up.
EG - The very first question is worth 20 points, and I scored >70%. So I take 20 x .8, and get 16.
The second question was worth 15 points, and I scored > 70%. So I take 15 x .8 and get 12.
The third question was worth 16 points, and I scored <50%, so I take 16 x .4 and get 6.4.
Once you’ve gone through the whole test, add up your points, and divide by 360 to get a percentage score.
 
My 40/60/80 score is 69.6%.
EDIT - AM score was 71.1% and PM score was 68.0%.
 
Just for my own edification, I calculated somebody who got a band 9 fail. His score was 58.3%.
 
My 40/60/80 score is 63.56%.
AM: 53%
PM: 74%
Greenman, you dominated the AM section. Not getting many below 50 is really good.

Yeah, only one, in fact.
But when I walked out, I was sure that I had scored 95% or better on the exam. I still passed, but not with the flying colors that I thought. And I might be the only one who statistically did better on the AM than on the PM.
 
Passed: 64.8%
Wow that’s borderline. My AM is 59.7% and my PM is 67.9%
Since MPS is usuallyt mid-60’s if you can muster avoiding too many <50’s in the AM and own the PM that seems to do it. I scored right where I thought I would but must have gotten some generous partial credit. In any event, glad to put this behind me.
 
Passed.

Was this a P or F?
(Don’t mean to rub salt in an open wound if it’s an F.)
 
Band 9 fail here, 56.3% total, 55% in the AM and 58% in the PM session. I guess the cut-off point was close to 60%.
 
59.5% for a Pass
Works out to be 53.0% on the morning and 66.0% on the afternoon.
I only passed 2 questions in the morning, and failed 5 out of 7 morning portfolio management questions, but I apparently did really well on Ethics and GIPS in the afternoon. Go figure.
